Compiling this sample:



I get this warning in Harbour and xHarbour:





The problem is /w3 compiler switch that I want to use absolutely. In xHarbour I can use /wb- to avoid that warning but Harbour doesn't support that switch.

Any ideas?

Dear Encrico

With /w0
I can compile the sample without any warning

Regards

Thank you, but you missed the point: I do want to use /w3.

EMG

Enrico,

Maybe change this line:

@ 1, 1 GET cVar

To this:

@ 1, 1 GET cVar of oDlg

James

No, this is a reduced sample still showing the problem:



EMG

The warning come from the codeblock



and all the other similar codeblock where we don't use all the parameters.

EMG

Enrico,

It seems that this is a valid warning, is it not? Or, are you just not wanting to see it regardless?

James

Yes, exactly (see my first post in this thread).

I found in the warning.txt in the xhb folder.

WARNING for XHB contrib users

This contrib is deprecated and not maintained anymore.

This was originally meant as a temporary stop-gap solution to help migrating
existing code written for xHarbour to Harbour, plus a means of documenting
the differences between the these two branches of the language. The
recommended path is to gradually migrate to use native core Harbour functions
and core language elements, then finalize that process by dropping the need
for this library.

Linking this library and/or using its headers (hbcompat.ch and xhb.ch in
particular) may cause various unintended side-effects both at compilation
and runtime.

Most of this code is also never tested by this fork, and none of it is ever
used, so the chances of bugs is higher than in other parts of Harbour.

If you can't do without some parts of this code, feel free to fork it locally
or publicly and continue maintaining it there, otherwise try switching to
core Harbour functionality ASAP.

Thank you, but I can't see how this can be of any help regarding my problem.

I repeat: I need to use /w3 warning level switch but I don't want to see all that warnings originated by codeblocks parameters (that belong to FWH and are out of my control). I use /wb- with xHarbour, how can I get the same result with Harbour?

EMG

/es[<level>] set exit severity
/w[<level>] set warning level number (0..3, default 1)


Strange, it only works this way.

Enrico,

I have a couple modules where I haven't figured out what to change in the code to suppress certain warnings. I found that in harbour I can use #pragma to suppress the warning locally within the problem files.

pragma WARNINGLEVEL = 3 // or whatever

pragma ENABLEWARNINGS = OFF/ON

Thank you, but I don't know how to suppress codeblock parameters warning in Harbour, even using compiler switches. In xHarbour I'm using /wb- but Harbour doesn't support it.

EMG

I don't know how to do it with a command line switch either, but with the pragmas I noted this will suppress the message for the specific section of effected code. Depending on code organization this can be a hassle to add, but does this not do what you want?

pragma WARNINGLEVEL = 1

ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg;
         ON INIT MSGINFO();
         CENTER

pragma WARNINGLEVEL = 3

Using your sample, this shows exactly how I have been dealing with this in my own code.
